If you are looking for traditional Italian fare - you will not go wrong ! Started with an awesome caeser salad, and followed up by an amazing Veal Parmesan (which isn't on the menu); service was outstanding; great value; second time going here, and will be going again!

My husband and I went here on our trip to Montreal to celebrate our anniversary and were so delighted with this place. A friend had recommended that we try it and if weather wasn't great, try to reserve the great table by the window. We were lucky with amazing weather so they had their little patio terrace open where we... More

If one is looking for a discount meal of average quality, this is not the place for you! Montreal's choice of Italian restaurants is almost never ending, yet BIS is a must! Contrary to popular belief, this is NOT a tourist trap, yet one of the most always interesting dining experiences if you know your way around. From the moment... More

We went here on recommendation of a friend. It is a beautiful restaurant- intimate/romantic. The food was very good and although some of the reviews were harsh on the price/ value I strongly disagree. My husband and I both had a first and main course ( no dessert), he had a beer and I had a glass of wine and... More

Food was terrific and good value for the price. Good lunch selection. It was too bad I was in a rush but would have loved to have taken my time eating. Perhaps next time :-)

Bring lots of cash or your UN-maxed credit cards to this place! The food is average, however , the decor is very pleasant and the service was attentive. We were a party ( three from out of town) of four and all ordered the Veal Parmigiana which was so-so as well as the Antipasto. The bread basket of rolls and... More

If you are looking for an upscale, cozy, comfortable Italian restaurant that is more than pizza and pasta, give this place a definite try!!!! The staff is amazing, the food is absolutely perfect and authentic, and don't even get me talking about the Cannoli!!!!!! The anti-pasto plate, while a bit pricey, was to die for!!! All this great food comes... More

I took a starter: Bufala Mozzarella with Balsamic sauce: nothing special Cote de veau farcie with prosciutto and cheese: the taste was wierd because of the cheap prosciutto Profiteroles: everything but fresh from the day. I still have this frozen crisp feeling in my teeth The wine... More

had a delicious dinner with lovely Italian favourites. I have had a traditional lasagne in many places but this one was up there with the very best, a lovely bechamel sauce and the past done to perfection. Service was very good but not intrusive, meal served at a good pace, prompt but not rushed and the waiters were very attentive... More

This Italian restaurant is quite authentic. The antipasto plate was tasty but expensive ($16). The lamb ragu pasta the same. The pasta itself was very well done, as was the sauce. But $24 for a plate of pasta takes some of the enjoyment away. Wanted to drink wine with the meal, but they offer no glasses of wine and the... More
